Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Lymphoid"

To determine safety profile of immunotherapy with natural killer cells and activated expanded (NKAEs) after salvage chemotherapy in relapsed/refractory paediatric T cell lymphoblastic leukaemia and lymphoma.

The purposee of this study is to determine the safety and dosing of Fenretinide when given continuously for 5 days, every 3 weeks, in pediatric patients with recurrent and/or resistant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).

An experimental drug called EZN-3042 targets survivin, a protein expressed in leukemia cells at relapse that promotes the leukemia cells to grow. The main goal of this phase I study is to find out the dose of EZN-3042 that can be safely given without serious side effects both alone and in combination with standard chemotherapy drugs during re-induction.

The goal of this clinical research study is learn if a vaccine that contains the patient's own cancer cell immunoglobulin can shrink or slow the growth of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). This clinical trial is a dose escalation study in which the safety of this vaccine will be studied. This is a dose escalation study in which each patient will receive vaccine at one dose level. Patients will be injected with a fragment of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) containing the sequence of their own immunoglobulin gene. Patients will be required to have their diagnosis of CLL and stage confirmed prior to initiating vaccination. After vaccination patients will receive clinical and immunologic evaluation, including both humoral and cellular responses. The investigator will be assessing the patient's immune response or whether the patient's body recognizes the DNA vaccine. In addition, side effects and reactions to the vaccine will be evaluated.

This is an open-label, dose escalation study designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of GNKG168 in patients with B-CLL that has relapsed or is refractory to all prior standard therapy, or for which no standard therapy exists.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid and to see how well they work in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system to attack cancer cells. R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and causing the cells to die. Giving lenalidomide with R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid may be an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory B-CLL. - Funding Source - FDA OOPD

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the combination of bendamustine and ofatumumab in subjects with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small cell lymphoma. All subjects enrolled on this study will receive both drugs by intravenous (IV) infusion.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alemtuzumab when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride in treating patients with relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that did not respond to fludarabine phosphate. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can also block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving bendamustine hydrochloride together with alemtuzumab may kill more cancer cells.

Participants will be randomized to SCH 727965 or a comparator drug (bortezomib for mantle cell lymphoma [MCL] or alemtuzumab for B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia [B CLL]). Part 1 of the study will determine the activity of SCH 727965 treatment in participants with MCL and participants with B-CLL. Part 2 of the study will determine the activity of SCH 727965 treatment in participants who experienced disease progression after standard treatment with the comparator drug during Part 1.

This is a phase I/II pediatric dose-ranging study that will evaluate the safety, tolerability, clinical response, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of midostaurin in patients <18 years of age who have relapsed or refractory acute leukemias that may benefit from administration of midostaurin, including MLL-rearranged ALL and FLT3 positive AML.
